According to a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, the President spoke while declaring open an induction course organised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for career ambassadors-designate, who were recently cleared by the Senate.

The President said the ambassadors-designate have to ensure that their host governments and the world know that Nigeria was more than the negative image portrayed to them.

He said, “For far too long, we have allowed Nigeria to be defined by others, always emphasising our negatives. To the average foreigner, Nigeria evokes 419, terrorism, militancy, communal and religious clashes, insecurity, corruption and all our other faults.”

Buhari also lamented that his administration does not have the robust funds to run foreign missions because of the economic situation.

He urged the ambassadors-designate to make sacrifices for the country, urging them to learn to “do more with less.”
